behavioral health
Psychological well-being field
Behavioral health is a broad term covering mental health, substance use, and habits that affect well-being.
It encompasses conditions like depression, anxiety, and addiction, as well as behaviors like eating patterns and stress management.
The term emerged in healthcare and insurance contexts as a softer alternative to "mental health," though critics note it can obscure the biological basis of psychiatric conditions: The clinic offers behavioral health services including counseling and addiction treatment.
